blackpowder rifles

[Eric Krewson]

The Holy Grail of black powder shops is Tip Curtis's Frontier shop in Cross Plains Tn above Nashville, every kind of kit, finished guns in the white and completed guns as well as any gun part under the sun. If there is any large BP event in your state Tip wil probably be there with his vendor trailer . Tip is a cantankerous old rascal but knows more about black power guns and shooting than anybody else around. Tip doesn't have a website and does all his business by phone and some emailing.

Here is one rack of his guns in his shop, there are three racks in all.

I am conflicted. 

I try so hard to not stare at a man's rack, but this one I just can't tear my eyes away!  Does this make me a bad person?

If you happen to go looking for Tip's shop, you drive off I-65 into Cross Plains, turn left just past the huge fiberglass pig, Tips shop in about 1/2 mile down the road you turned on to the left. No signs out on the road last time I was there but you can't miss it, a huge gray building with a large parking lot. On a hill to the right of the shop is Tip's house made from very old, hand cut chimney stones Tip collected, petty distinctive.
